I\u2019d like to introduce myself so you can be better informed as you decide who will be your representatives on the round table.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been a proponent of sustainability initiatives since before I received my Environmental Science degree in 1991. Through my passion for recycling, (and a great deal of grit and determination) I initiated a paper recycling program in the Wayne State University Library system in 1990.\u00a0 In addition, I\u2019ve worked in the public sector as a recycling education coordinator.\u00a0 As my career has advanced, and my influence in libraries has increased, my efforts lately have moved to sustainable purchases in the library and minimizing waste production.\u00a0\u00a0 I have chosen to work in libraries because I recognize that the very foundation of sharing limited resources for all the public is sustainability in practice. A library\u2019s goals align with my own.<\/p>\n<p>As your Member-at-Large I hope to enrich SustainRT\u2019s influence in ALA. I will encourage our ability to be a clearinghouse of information to the libraries we serve. Creative librarians are developing answers entrenched problems every day.\u00a0 I hope that by sharing good ideas widely, our impact to the profession will increase, and our environment will be the better for it. I hope that we can join together to bring about a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for your interest!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello, My name is Mary Beth Lock and I am running for Member-at-Large for SustainRT.
